===Hawaii=== {{Main|Culture of Hawaii|Cuisine of Hawaii|Hawaiian religion}} The music of Hawaii includes traditional and popular styles, ranging from native Hawaiian folk music to modern [[Rock music|rock]] and [[Hip hop music|hip hop]]. Hawaii's musical contributions to the [[music of the United States]] are out of proportion to the state's small size. Styles such as [[slack-key guitar]] are well known worldwide, while Hawaiian-tinged music is a frequent part of [[Cinema of the United States|Hollywood]] soundtracks. Hawaii also made a major contribution to [[country music]] with the introduction of the [[steel guitar]].<ref name="Unterberger" /> The Hawaiian religion is [[Polytheism|polytheistic]] and [[Animism|animistic]], with a belief in many deities and spirits, including the belief that spirits are found in non-human beings and objects such as animals, the waves, and the sky.<ref name="Chai" /> The [[cuisine of Hawaii]] is a fusion of many foods brought by immigrants to the Hawaiian Islands, including the earliest Polynesians and [[Native Hawaiian cuisine|native Hawaiians]], and [[Cuisine of the United States|American]], [[Chinese cuisine|Chinese]], [[Filipino cuisine|Filipino]], [[Japanese cuisine|Japanese]], [[Korean cuisine|Korean]], [[Polynesian cuisine|Polynesian]], and [[Portuguese cuisine|Portuguese]] origins.
